Dr Freeman was fantastic. he had a great bedside manner and explained everything throughly. The actual procedure was performed very efficiently and only took 30 mins and outside of the local anesthetic injection, was pain free.

This was my first time seeing Dr Freeman and he was awesome! He listened to my many concerns without judgement and took the time to not only put me at ease but to also explain his plan and what his next step was. I was thoroughly impressed as I myself am in the medical field and I will definitely recommend him and Optum for their care. Dr Freeman made a lasting impression and I am thankful I don't need his services but definitely sad that I will not be able to have him as a primary physician. I only wish all physicians had his bedside manner. For him to make that type of impression upon someone who works in the field themselves says a lot about him. Dr Freeman was Wonderful.

We are following guidelines set by the CDC and actively working with the State Department of Health on the phased approach for vaccine distribution. If you received your first dose of the vaccine from Optum prior to January 25, 2021, you should have already received your appointment confirmation for the second dose. This appointment confirmation will come via phone, text, or email from the State's COVID-19 vaccine registration portal. For those that received their first dose after January 25, 2021, we provided details following your vaccine on how you can get registered for the second dose.

Additionally, those that received their vaccine prior to January 25, 2021: Due to an administrative error, you may have received a bill for the administration of the vaccine. This bill was incorrectly sent out, and you can disregard it. We have removed the charge from your account. Should you have any further questions, please contact us at 1-505-232-1000.
